ok. lets just keep things a little bit simple. It started out with Ken playing solo/acoustic. When Ken was looking to find a studio band he found Dan Martin and Ron Lange. They recorded an 8 song ep entiltled "rocket surgery''. Its been about 5 years now and the band is still kicking, Dan and Ron both do side projects and Ken continues to write music and play solo gigs when the band cant back him.
Band/artist history
We have played everywhere and anywhere.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We have played everywhere, from shithole dive bars, coffee houses, the beach, to places like the Stone Pony. I felt honored to play on the same stage as bruce.
Your musical influences
Its pretty sweet when 3 musicians have basically the same taste in music. We all started out by jamming Dave Matthews band covers, but other influences would have to be Bob Marley, State Radio, Keller Williams, Dispatch, Ryan Adams and the Cardinals.
What equipment do you use?
Ron usually takes care of that.
Anything else?
Well look forward to some solo material coming out in the short future, I have been working on a lot of new tunes. I will also be helping a Wonderful singer/pianist/songwriter by the name of Britney Jones on her new album, so there is plenty of work. i hope you come back and see the changes. peace,love,Respect -Ken Shiles
